The Lobster Pot. Grand Tiki. The Cayman Islands Nationwide Museum. The Wreck of the Cali. The jewellery outlets. Georgetown, Grand Cayman is likely one of the must-visit stops on the island, its capital and a world-class procuring vacation spot on a lovely stretch of harbor entrance.
However what the capital has by no means actually had is a vacation spot lodge of its personal: vacationers are likely to go for extra in style in a single day locations like Seven Mile Seaside, the East Finish and Cayman Kai.
This fall, although, that’s about to alter in an enormous means, with the debut of the highly-anticipated new One GT, the primary luxurious lodge in Georgetown and a significant new vacation spot lodge for the entire island.
The lodge, which is slated to open in November, could have the whole lot from a rooftop pool and lounge to a residential-style format with 177 rooms starting from condominium items to penthouse lofts.
The property, set throughout 10 tales, may also have a French-Mediterranean eatery, a pastry-cafe and, most significantly, a setting proper within the coronary heart of downtown.
Different facilities will embody room service, full kitchens within the rooms and personal balconies with hard-to-match views of the harbor.
However the rooftop, known as the “Sky Membership,” would be the centerpiece of the lodge, with non-public cabanas, craft cocktails and what the lodge payments as the one rooftop with a pool on the island. (It’s a part of a rising rooftop motion in Grand Cayman, one that features Pom Pom on the Lodge Indigo, certainly one of our favourite rooftops in the entire Caribbean).
The property is being managed by Remington Hospitality, which has been rising quick within the area and calls Georgetown a “dynamic market,” in keeping with an announcement offered to Caribbean Journal.
It is best to observe that whereas it’s concentrating on a November opening, reserving hasn’t been launched fairly but. Charges haven’t been launched, however we expect they’ll be within the luxurious vary, no less than $600 or $700 per night time based mostly on comparable costs on the island.
In the event you’re on the lookout for a Grand Cayman trip proper now, we love the recently-opened Lodge Indigo and the upstart, wellness targeted Vida, a tiny boutique within the laid-back West Bay space (rooms from $819 proper now).
What about flights? Grand Cayman has been seeing a continued uptick in guests, and that’s partly as a consequence of continued progress in airlift.
You could find flights from Miami proper now for $322 on American Airways and $369 on Cayman Airways out of Miami; you may fly for $641 out of New York on JetBlue, in keeping with Google Flights’ choices.
